Intro: Am C G F
Am
On nights like tonight when no one's around
C
I put on the record, the record I found
G
When I was a kid and the world was a town
F
And Heartbreaker weren't nothing painful
Am
Carry me Mother Mary, I'm faithless
C
Like Sister Theresa, canonized, faceless
G
The press release leaves the plagiarist nameless
F
And all is forgiven
Am
On nights like tonight when no one's around
C
I sit in the dark on my hands on the ground
G
And I smile like the devil smiles, unseen but proud
F
Truth be told I don't know
Am G F
Who's at the helm
G F
But just sit tight
Em D
I'll make my way to you
F Em D
I'll make my way to you
Instrumentals: Am C G F
Am F
If I'm not on time
Am F
Remember that I tried
Am
Carry me Mother Mary, I'm faithless
C
Like needles in haystacks that we just replace
G
It's all the same monster that nobody faces
F
Where all is forgiven
Am
On nights like tonight when no one's around
C
I turn off the lights and I float off the ground
G
And I smile like I used to when you were around
F
But truth be told I don't know
Am G F
Who's at the helm
G F
Just sit tight
Em D
I'll make my way to you
F Em D
I'll find a way to get to you
Instrumental
D
I don't know
Am G F
Who's at the helm
G F
But just sit tight
F Em D
And I'll find a way to get to you
